    WOW! Imagine no auto tune, no lip synching, to studio faking! Real voice. Real music.

    How to steal a song from the original artist and OWN it. Etta James illustrates how you "cover" a song.You don't, you do it your way and treat it with respect. True greatness. RIP sweet soulful Sista.

    Todays R&B and Rap vs Etta James and other former class singers with real voices and real blues and soul in their very beings. No contest.
    Todays Rap and R&B 0
    Etta James 10
    The bands that Etta used 10
    I guess these figures say to R&B and Rap, Close the door on your way out.
    Please singers l beg you, Bring back the class into soul and blues.
    Etta forever and god bless her saintly soul.

    Pity that the Deep In The Night Album isn’t considered a masterpiece comeback!
    Etta had many comebacks and labels!!!
    Her early outputs were superior to any of her well done post discovery albums! I got everything Etta put out from the word go!
    Thanks!!!

    No auto tune, lip synching and weak voices that need the sound turned up! Beautiful unadulterated voice that was more powerful than a real live band! Today's talentless should take note!
